A Joy Ride. Umm Al Quwain Khor Al Beda is a place with a beautiful lake surrounded with a lot of birds, an early morning rise and a drive from Ras Al Khaimah to Khor Al Beda is always amazing when you see the sun rising and its golden rays touching the lake and greenery which makes the greens even more beautiful as like the leaf’s are coated with Gold and in this green we see a Beautiful bird Bee Eater who tirelessly works to gather her food, a beautiful bird “Bee Eater” full of energy who flies like rocket.

Hide and Seek. A place where I love to spend my time is in Al Qudra Lakes Dubai, where you can feel nature, beautiful sounds of birds. Every moment spent is like a treasure in the ocean of memories. In this picture a Marsh Harrier and a Dove are playing Hide and Seek, the moment Dove sees Marsh Harrier she hides herself under water. This game lasted for half an hour.

Food is Earned. Ospreys makes a lot of efforts to earn its meals, which at times includes many unsuccessful dives from height in the water, but at last it comes with a trophy, which is truly earned. One of the moments to remember for any wildlife enthusiast photographer is to catch a Raptor bird with its prey. Taken in Al Qudra Lakes, Dubai.
